Jeremiah 17
1 The sin of Juda is written with a pen of iron, with the point of a diamond, it is graven upon the table of their heart, upon the horns of their altars.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Richo mar Juda ondik gi kalamb chuma; ogor gi gima bith e chunygi, kendo e tunge kende mag misango miwangʼoe liswa.
2 When their children shall remember their altars, and their groves, and their green trees upon high mountains,
Kata mana nyithindgi paro kendegi mag misango miwangʼoe liswa, kod sirni mag Ashera mantie bath yiende motimo otiep, kendo e gode matindo motingʼore gi malo.
3 Sacrificing in the field: I will give thy strength, and all thy treasures to the spoil, and thy high places for sin in all thy borders.
Goda maduongʼ manie piny kod mwanduni gi nyak magi duto anami wasiki, kaachiel gi kuonde magi motingʼore gi malo, nikech richo manie pinyu duto.
4 And thou shalt be left stripped of thy inheritance, which I gave thee: and I will make thee serve thy enemies in a land which thou knowest not: because thou hast kindled a fire in my wrath, it shall burn for ever.
Kethou uwegi nomi nomau girkeni mane amiyou. Anami ubed wasumb wasiku e piny ma ok ungʼeyo, nimar usemedo mirimba, kendo enowangʼ nyaka chiengʼ.”
5 Thus saith the Lord: Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “Okwongʼ ngʼatno ma genone ni kuom dhano, ngʼatno mogeno kuom ringruok mondo omiye teko, kendo ma chunye aa kuom Jehova Nyasaye.
6 For he shall be like tamaric in the desert, and he shall not see when good shall come: but he shall dwell in dryness in the desert in a salt land, and not inhabited.
Enochal ka bungu manie thim; ok enowinj maber ka ber obiro. Enodag kuonde motwo motimo ongoro, kama otimo chumbi maonge ngʼama odakie.
7 Blessed be the man that trusteth in the Lord, and the Lord shall be his confidence.
“To ogwedh ngʼatno moketo geno mare kuom Jehova Nyasaye, kendo oyie kuome.
8 And he shall be as a tree that is planted by the waters, that spreadeth out its roots towards moisture: and it shall not fear when the heat cometh. And the leaf thereof shall be green, and in the time of drought it shall not be solicitous, neither shall it cease at any time to bring forth fruit.
Enochal gi yien mopidh but pi ma tiende nyaa e tiend aora. Ok obed gi luoro ka liet obiro; ite osiko mana ka ngʼich. Oonge gi parruok e higa mar oro kendo ok owe ma ok onyago olemo.”
9 The heart is perverse above all things, and unsearchable, who can know it?
Chuny en jawuond moloyo gik moko duto kendo ok nyal thiedhe. En ngʼa manyalo ngʼeye?
10 I am the Lord who search the heart and prove the reins: who give to every one according to his way, and according to the fruit of his devices.
“An Jehova Nyasaye ema anono chuny kendo apimo paro, mondo achiwne ngʼato kaluwore gi timne, kendo kaluwore gi kaka kite chalo.”
11 As the partridge hath hatched eggs which she did not lay: so is he that hath gathered riches, and not by right: in the midst of his days he shall leave them, and in his latter end he shall be a fool.
Kaka winyo ma butno e tongʼ mane ok onywolo, e kaka ngʼatno mayudo mwandu gi yore ma ok kare. Ka nus ngimane oserumo, mwandune noweye, kendo gikone nonere malongʼo ni en ngʼama ofuwo.
12 A high and glorious throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctification:
Kom duongʼ, motingʼ malo aa chakruok, e kama ler mar lemo marwa.
13 O Lord the hope of Israel: all that forsake thee shall be confounded: they that depart from thee, shall be written in the earth: because they have forsaken the Lord, the vein of living waters.
Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, geno mar Israel, jogo duto mojwangʼi noyud wichkuot. Jogo molokoni ngʼegi nondik nying-gi e buru nikech gisejwangʼo Jehova Nyasaye, soko mar pi ngima.
14 Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed: save me, and I shall be saved, for thou art my praise.
Changa, yaye Jehova Nyasaye, kendo anachangi; resa kendo anaresra, nimar in kendi ema apaki.
15 Behold they say to me: Where is the word of the Lord? let it come.
Gisiko ka giwachona ni, “Ere wach Jehova Nyasaye? Dak otimre sani!”
16 And I am not troubled, following thee for my pastor, and I have not desired the day of man, thou knowest. That which went out of my lips, hath been right in thy sight.
Pok aweyo bedo jakwath mari; ingʼeyo ni pok agombo odiechiengʼ mar thagruok. Gima wuok e dhoga ingʼeyo.
17 Be not thou a terror unto me, thou art my hope in the day of affliction.
Kik ilokrina masira; in e kar pondana e kinde mar thagruok.
18 Let them be confounded that persecute me, and let not me be confounded: let them be afraid, and let not me be afraid: bring upon them the day of affliction, and with a double destruction, destroy them.
Mad jogo masanda ne wichkuot, to an kik wiya kuodi; mad gibed gi bwok maduongʼ to an kik ibwoga. Kel gigi kuomgi e kinde mar masira; kethgi gi kethruok manyadiriyo.
19 Thus saith the Lord to me: Go, and stand in the gate of the children of the people, by which the kings of Juda come in, and go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem:
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye nowachona: “Dhi kendo ichungʼ e dhorangach miluongo ni dhoranga ji, kama ruodhi mag Juda donjogo kendo wuok godo oko; chungʼ bende e rangeye duto mag Jerusalem.
20 And thou shalt say to them: Hear the word of the Lord, ye kings of Juda, and all Juda, and all the inhabitant of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates.
Wachnegi, ‘Winj wach Jehova Nyasaye, yaye ruodhi mag Juda kod jo-Juda duto gi ngʼato angʼata modak e Jerusalem madonjo gie rangeyegi.
21 Thus saith the Lord: Take heed to your souls and carry no burdens on the Sabbath day: and bring them not in by the gates of Jerusalem.
Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: Bed motangʼ ma kik itingʼ misigo chiengʼ Sabato kata ikele kokalo e rangeye mag Jerusalem.
22 And do not bring burdens out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work: sanctify the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers.
Kik ukel misike koa ei uteu kata timo tich moro chiengʼ Sabato, to rit chiengʼ Sabato maler, mana kaka ne achiko kwereu.
23 But they did not hear, nor incline their ear: but hardened their neck, that they might not hear me, and might not receive instruction.
Kata kamano ne ok gichiko itgi kata winja; tokgi ne tek ta ma ok ginyal winjo wach kata winjo puonj.
24 And it shall come to pass: if you will hearken to me, saith the Lord, to bring in no burdens by the gates of this city on the sabbath day: and if you will sanctify the sabbath day, to do no work therein:
To ka inyalo bedo motangʼ kiluora, Jehova Nyasaye owacho, kendo onge misigo mikadhogo dhoranga dala maduongʼni chiengʼ Sabato, to irito chiengʼ Sabato maler ma ok itimo tich moro chiengʼno,
25 Then shall there enter in by the gates of this city kings and princes, sitting upon the throne of David, and riding in chariots and on horses, they and their princes, the men of Juda, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and this city shall be inhabited forever.
eka ruodhi mabet e kom duongʼ Daudi nobi kakalo e rangeye mag dala maduongʼni gi jotendgi. Gin kod jotelo mag-gi ginibi ka giriembo geche kod farese, ka gin kaachiel gi jo-Juda kod jogo modak e Jerusalem, kendo dala maduongʼni enodage nyaka chiengʼ.
26 And they shall come from the cities of Juda, and from the places round about Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the plains, and from the mountains, and from the south, bringing holocausts, and victims, and sacrifices, and frankincense, and they shall bring in an offering into the house of the Lord.
Ji nobi koa e dala mag Juda kod mier molworo Jerusalem, koae gwengʼ Benjamin gi tiend gode matindo ma yo podho chiengʼ, koa e piny manie gode matindo kod Negev, ka gikelo misango miwangʼo pep kod misengini mamoko, chiwo mag cham, ubani gi chiwo mag goyo erokamano e od Jehova Nyasaye.
27 But if you will not hearken to me, to sanctify the sabbath day, and not to carry burdens, and not to bring them in by the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath day: I will kindle a fire in the gates thereof, and it shall devour the houses of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.
To ka ok umiya luor mondo urit Sabato maler ma ok utingʼo misigo ka udonjo e rangeye Jerusalem chiengʼ Sabato, to anamok mach ma ok tho e rangeye mag Jerusalem manowangʼ kuondegi mochiel motegno.’”
